Transmission hesitation before shifting to the next gear can be caused by several factors, including low Transmission Fluid levels, worn or damaged components such as clutches or bands, or issues with the transmission control module. Additionally, problems with the throttle position sensor or engine performance issues can affect shifting behavior. Regular maintenance and fluid checks are essential to prevent such hesitation. If the problem persists, professional diagnostics may be necessary.
